@afrothunderxx96 my first ever fanart, I really hope you like it! (Sorry, I’m not good at drawing bodies)

I'm excited for the comic, I have the feeling that the battle would be intense. I wonder how everything looks like after the corruption.

Take your time Afrothunder, we have all the time in the world :)

Blixer and Corrupted Cube belongs to @afrothunderxx96

Hi, I'm a Cube fan, made some art) And thank you for creating such a wonderful character like her

Wow, this is really some cool fan Art you made (Afrothunder seal of approval for fanArt)

[shroom-grotto-system]

on that double-fandom brainrot and am thinking about crossover AUs now

the two fandoms i’m thinking of are the JSAB AU webcomic Close To Your Heart by @afrothunderxx96 and the game duo Cats Are Liquid by Last Quarter Studios (development blog: @catsareliquidgame )

if you don’t know the Cats are liquid lore then i’ve linked a video that effectively summarizes it at the bottom of the post but if you don’t know the CTYH lore then you’ve really gotta read the webcomic, there’s a link to it at afrothunder’s pinned post

the crossover i’m thinking of is specifically lumi in the CTYH world. i kind of feel like she would get along well with everyone

i made some art of her n cube

its very rough n quick but i like it

here’s that video explaining the cats are liquid lore

[zimcard-artblog]

swap au macabre: a chaos lesbian, farmer gal, and just as badass as afrothunders macabre

and i love it

I like that idea! Though I do hc her as Bi ^^!

Really like to brainstorm more for her and Sam, especially Sam with his bounty hunter side gig and how he and his small group ended up encountering the blue flowers (which led to Sam losing his group and being the only survivor)

Hey there

I only found this blog recently and I love it, the story line and the artwork along with it, it's a shame you had to discontinue the comic because I enjoyed it.

There are not many JSAB blogs that I like I'll say, but there's been a decrease in them as the hype went away, I found this in my recommended section after I was going through some hard times myself.

After Afrothunder left the community to fix her mental health problems (she was quite the inspiration and helped me through my darkest hours at one point) there wasn't anything left here in this community a side from a couple of blogs here and there I wanted to start my own blog.

But I ran into a major downfall almost immediately, how do you get people to look at your stuff, I know there are a lot of blogs that don't get noticed and run down to nothing but how did you do it or when did people start noticing your work?

I'm not asking for the sake of followers but for other people who are scared to ask this or have a blog of their own like me.

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it!

I'm still making JSaB art and I've started making a new JSaB AU centered comic (working on chapter 2 atm. 10 pages, fully colored, background + 6 characters) if that's something you wanna see (on my artblog, @zimcard-artblog ) . I haven't made some crisis-au stuff in awhile due to being busy but I'll get back to sharing more lore and other stuff like short comics and whatnot.

Also, yeah, JSaB has been up for awhile. 2 years or so? Man, back in the early days, there were so many early starting comics that were amazing. I honestly miss it back then and wished I was more active like I am right now. Ya' know, the community is still kicking- especially in different social media platforms from my knowledge. I, personally, do NOT suggest Amino. Safe yourself the trouble and back away from it.

Oh! Afrothunder is back from my knowledge but she is doing it in her own pace for the sake of her mental health, it's a genuine shame to hear how someone so talented and kind is being treated so poorly by a bunch of impatient, immature, and even heartless people over her work. This has happened to a lot of people who make popular comics online, often on their own pace, which they tend to run into a bunch of people who are very disrespectful of their personal lives. I've talked to Afrothunder Waaaaaaay back, made an ask collab once with her regarding Blixer and Cyan in this blog. We don't talk now but I like to think of her as an old friend because she was super nice and welcoming back then when we first started talking on the server, it was super neat. Wishing her the best and hope she's doing well right now <:]

> How did you do it or When did people start noticing your blog?

I think it's a matter of getting recognized enough so you can promote any projects you're working on. I started drawing fanart for JSaB the moment I finished watching the playthroughs, it eventually garnered an audience who are into the same media I was in which I gained new followers.

So, basically; get recognized. Tagging your stuff of said media you're basing your post about makes it easier for people to find it. Share some art, doodles, concepts, whatever you have and what you want to share with the people. Eventually you'll notice the numbers rising.

It usually went on like that for me until I end up having an idea- like, "Oh, I have an AU! I wanna share that AU and make a comic out of it!" And so I started sharing small concepts regarding the AU.

Sketches, doodles, designs, short comics, and explanations. It was like an early beta of the project I was working on and when it got enough people interested; That's when you kickstart the final piece that goes "Hey, I made a comic! Check it out!"

If you're doing it on tumblr, really advise to make another blog as a sort of archive for said comic because it makes it easier for people to find the comic and read back to it whenever they want to. Accessibility is key.

This actually applies for making askblogs as well or any sort of extra blog for something specific.

Then, with all of that, you go on your own pace. It's a hard start but you'll be able to go with your own flow, take your time, and remember to prioritize YOURSELF first before other things. If you receive any sort of hate or just weird messages, just delete them on the spot because you are responsible for your own inbox.

That's my two cents on it, hope this helps! If there's anything specific you wanna know. Just ask :3

[misty-wolf-draws]

Um, can I ask JSAB Tumblr a quick question?

Has anyone heard from Afrothunder? I just checked her DeviantArt and it said it was deactivated. Is she still posting to her Tumblr account?

I swear nobody better have harassed her to continue the comic. I'd hate to see another GraWolfQuinn situation.

[3dblaster]

(I’m gonna probably gonna regret this) I did this oc some time ago and the funny thing about her is that is a mix between my sona Roquetech and the CTYH cube why? you may ask well... it was because some poeple like to troll me and afrothunder too (dont ask more context because its gets 💀)

[licoriceishot]

This is a gift for Afrothunder!

@afrothunderxx96 I hope you like this! I love you and your art and i appreciate all of your work! I hope you get better!

Love from, Tsav!

[cntrl-c-cntrl-v]

YALL WHAT THE FUCK HAS BEEN GOING ON OVER ON AFROTHUNDER'S PAGE 😭😭😭😭

[hauntedaether]

tell me about your opinions on cuda x cube from ctyh

i only ask you this to hear you beat that shit down/srs

no joke, this is actually a thing at least one person ships, afrothunder took a commission including it for reasons far beyond my comprehension.

Hi echo i know this is you/lh

Not a fan. dynamic barely matches up. i feel like it wouldnt be very healthy, i wouldnt say toxic necessarily but still bad!! Also cube x blix solos anyways!!!!

also cuda is Aroace in my mind and soul and i refuse to think of him as anything else. He is love phobic and thinks romance is silly. Which might be why he tries to fuck up cube and blix LOL.

Pretty sure afrothunder did the commission bcz she was like,, Yk paid for it,, i certainly wouldn't do that, but i kinda get it. Money's money. I'm concerned about the person who commissioned it like,,, what comic do you think youre reading????/lh /hj

More fanart for @afrothunderxx96

My oc Harmony (yes my oc has the same name as me deal with it) has invited Blixer to hangout with her and Blixer brought his guitar with him so this Blixer is the first shape to hear Harmony's singing voice
